GTK+OSX for Mac OS X Aqua

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the making-cross-platform-groovy dept.

Scott Sheppard writes "GTK+OSX has released a native Mac OS X Aqua port of the Linux-based GTK+ open source graphical user interface library. GTK+ (GIMP Toolkit) is a popular widget library supporting graphical applications for Linux. GTK+OSX version 0.1 is an alpha release intended for developers." This could make The Gimp cozy for MacHeads without installing XDarwin and OroborOSX. Looking good!

    Isn't that for Gnome? While Gnome was at one point a great windowing system, we must recognize its place as a great step forward, but a dinosaur all the same. KDE is a much richer interface which has a better chance of being accepted by the public.

    STUPID SLASHDOT... stop posting stories like this one. They are pointless. NOONE GIVES A CARE ABOUT APPLE'S UI. I really wish you would stop right NOW. YOU CAN MOD ME DOWN IF YOU WANT, I DON'T CARE... SLASHDOT HAS A WAY OF MODDING DOWN PEOPLE WHO GO AGAINST IT. It's called free speech.

    Absolutely true. But modded-down by the Apple shills at Slashdot.

    Sigh.

    Also, how suitable is the Gimp to a single mouse button?
